Could have been worse! Aluminum wiring, kid was running a gaming PC, dual monitor setup, a PlayStation and a mini fridge on a janky power bar. Fire department cut the receptacle out and threw it outside. Lucky.

This was 6ish years ago, 1,700 square foot ranch. Done by a master electrician. Took him a while doing it in his spare time/weekend was between jobs and he was a friend. So, probably should of cost like 15k+. I knew he wasn’t charging me enough money so I didn’t even get quotes.
I’m a semi-peofesional finish carpenter/woodworker. Take some jobs in that as a side gig, and build furniture. Have plenty of friends in the trades, I do them favors (people who know what they’re doing with hardwood finish work aren’t widely available from what I’ve seen) and have probably gotten more than my fair share of discount jobs done cuz I refinished a door or something well for a friend of a friend etc.
